"....have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and to try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Don’t search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer.”

― Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet

Hidden wisdom, crouching shadow!

There is a part of you that existsSomewhere withinReaching into your futureGuiding you like an internal lighthouse

You falter, you waverYou surmise over what has been and what is going to beYou move on, you fall backYou compromise, you please

And yet again, no matter how much you try to shun it awayIt follows you like an undetachable radar Guiding you, Altering your path, Leading you right..

You waver once more, you have trust issuesYou are unsure of what to followSo you go back to the well woven path againThings feel familiar, things feel right So you stick on awhile out of fright

Sooner or later you are thrown back to the same pathThe light still shines wanting to guide youYou look at it like you always didWishing it would just go awaySo you can go back to being normalDoing what you are used to doing..

But a moment of doubt, curiosity maybe?.. holds you backYou wonder why that light never fades awayNo matter how many times you chose to ignore it over the yearsThe logical part of you says there must be a reasonThat it's been as adamant as you were, never dying outBurning like a little flame unwilling to cease

Is it within me or is it me?You decide on a whim to take this unbeaten pathYou don't know where it leads to, But you sure know exactly where it starts, within you..

As you start walking through your own unfamiliarityYou begin to feel a sense of calming familiarityEthereal like, like you always knew it existedAfter awhile it only feels all too familiarFor..for the first time you had begun walking towards who you really were

Who you really are from within, where you truly belongThat had been calling out to you all alongYou find yourself at the end of your journeyWho you were and who you are Now merged into who you were always meant to be!

The fire within still burns brightYour life..your path is yours to be painted on the canvas of your futureAnd if you ever falter..waver..Just remember this - The light within never fades away!!

Close your eyes and look for it Your silence will guide you back to where you left off..
